1st Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Hit the ground running for this yard, his Ripon win in April backed up by arguably unlucky fourth at Goodwood the following month; not beaten far in the Dash here next time and led on the line at Windsor (again 5f, good to firm) last Monday; 4lb penalty to overcome and his best has come at 5f, but he's still considered. |
7/2 |

1st 5 (4) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
In good form for his new yard, faring best of those drawn low in the Epsom Dash last time back in the trademark cheekpieces; bit unlucky at Goodwood on his previous start too and remains on a fair mark; one to consider. |
6/1 |

7th 17 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Trained by James Evans when winning this race in 2024 off a 5lb higher mark (good to soft); well beaten in it last year but he arrives in good form for his new stable, winning at Ripon in April and not enjoying the cleanest run when fourth at Goodwood 15 days ago; rain won't hurt his chance and he's of obvious interest. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Veteran with 19 wins on his CV, including three editions of this race and a narrow success at Beverley (5f, good to soft) last month; drawn on the outside today and doesn't have much margin for error off this mark but it won't be a surprise if he gives this a good shot. |
14/1 |

6th 6 (2) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Grand old veteran who can be forgiven his defeat in a Class 2 at York last time, having won at this level the time before at Beverley (2lb lower); had 119 races and yet this is his first visit here. |
16/1 |
|
18th 18 (4) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Hugely admirable 12yo whose seven York wins include this race in 2019 and 2021, and he built upon last month's reappearance second at Ripon (5f, good) to win at Beverley (5f, good to soft) ten days ago; however, there's a suspicion he may find a big-field Class 2 such as this too hot nowadays. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Placed a few times this season, including when favourite at Catterick last time; back up in grade but he's 3lb below last winning mark and seems to have a fighting chance. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner off 1lb higher last September; two good runs when third at Ripon in April (5f, good) and at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) last month but he hasn't done as well since. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW but he has won on fast turf; good fourth at Ripon in April but he could only manage a midfield finish at Thirsk in May; 2lb lower than when short-headed by Brazen Bolt in this race 12 months ago but he arrived in top form then. |
14/1 |

11th 3 (18) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
25-1 winner of a division of this race 12 months ago; arrives in form following a success at Southwell and a creditable fourth of eight at Ripon; should be in the thick of things again. |
8/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Placed three times on AW over the winter before resuming winning ways over 5f at Southwell 18 days ago; hasn't been successful above a mark of 76 so a career best will be needed if he's to follow up. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Running creditably this season and she is closely matched with Elegant Erin on their Nottingham run 13 days ago; suspicion she is vulnerable again here though; cheekpieces replace a visor today. |
10/1 |

4th 3 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
All three wins have been at 5f on turf (good/good to firm) and she's been beaten less than 2l in her last two starts; looks weighted near best off this mark but she should go well again. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Capitalised on his drop in the weights when coming from off the pace to win at Goodwood (5f, good) last month; disappointed back at Goodwood (6f, soft) 19 days ago; stable has stronger claims elsewhere. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (8) |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Ended a two-year barren spell when getting up late in a 5f handicap here 16 days; 3lb higher mark to deal with but he has a Group 3 win on his record and conditions won't faze him; respected. |
5/2 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Acts on any ground; on a losing spell that goes back to Group 3 success two years ago but is on a very attractive mark and his Class 2 form this term includes a couple of respectable efforts; this combination of a drop in grade and assistance of Jamie Spencer (up for first time; regular jockey for the owner) may be the time to catch him. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
0-10 since arriving from France but twice finished runner-up in the spring (5f, good) and he was a close fifth in a tight finish at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) last week; might not be far away. |
4/1 |
|
5th 4 (4) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Runner-up on two of his starts this spring (both 5f, good) and he was contesting the competitive Dash at Epsom (5f, good to soft) when mid-division last time; this isn't so hot and he could be in the mix. |
5/1 |
|
12th 15 (15) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Yet to win for Ian Williams but he's down in the weights and has run well in two of his last three starts, pipped at Goodwood last month (5f, good); wouldn't be sure to confirm those placings with Dream Composer this time. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Far from consistent this season but scored off just 1lb lower over C&D in May and has a fighting chance provided he's back in the same form. |

7th 6 (1) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Won a C&D handicap in April 2024 (heavy); has run mainly over 5f since; fair run in a decent 5f handicap at Carlisle last week (soft); each-way chance. |
8/1 |

6th 7 (10) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Hasn't been at his best since winning at Ripon early last month (5f, good); today's conditions ideal and could bounce back from good draw. |
